Rhetorical Analysis of Federalist Paper No.15Alexander Hamilton’s Federalist Paper No.15 expressed how he felt about the people and the government. Hamilton argued non-stop about the Constitution problems and how he would like to solve them. Hamilton had his own beliefs, fears, and assumptions about the arguments he faced with the Constitution, but he was not afraid to speak up and speak out about how he would solve them himself.

In the Federalist paper No. 15, Alexander Hamilton argues that a stronger central government is needed, and he believes that without a strong central government we will not hold the country together politically and economically.

He believes that no man that is willing to give up his happiness should be punished in the way they were punishing them with swords in the military. Hamilton No. 15 warns citizens that the states are on the verge of national humiliation. They are foreseeing anarchy between the states, and the borrowing and lending policies are causing turmoil.
